This week we have Louise, co-owner of Dwarfcraft Devices on the show! We talk about cheese curds, cats, our favorite Dwarfcraft pedals, karaoke, booth babes (AGAIN), and Nashville. Then, we get into the topic of the episode, which is abusive men in the music and gear industry, things that make women uncomfortable in the industry (like the Guitar World bikini gear guide), and whether or not it's right to call abusive men "men." Want more? Join our Facebook group, where Emily builds a visual thread to go with every episode! Sponsored by Jennings Guitars and Dwarfcraft Devices. And special thanks to Zvex Effects! The Mt. Hood fuzz pedal by Spruce Effects is now available! There will only be 10 ever sold in pink, so don't wait too long to buy. The Mt. Hood has its humble beginnings as the first ever series of Big Muff, the Triangle version. We ditched the tone control for a passive 3 band eq tone stack, added a presence control after the last gain stage for more tone shaping, put a footswitchable Germanium boost with gain and tone controls, and a diode switch to add an extra order of magnitude of tonal options.
Let's get into it with Ben from Dwarfcraft!
Sometimes I just get lucky; in this case, I happened to skip over to the 'check your messages' widget in Facebook, and saw that I had a conversation I'd never checked into. It was from Benjamin Hinz of Dwarfcraft Devices, and we started talking about doing an interview. When I realized that he was in Eau Claire (about a 1 1/2 hour drive from me), I knew that we needed to do this face-to-face. And so we did! I got a chance to see the Dwaftcraft offices, say hi to some of the people working their (and see their process in action) and have a lunch at Culver's (which is something that every Midwesterner would understand). Then we holed up in Ben's office - which is filled to the brim with instruments, circuit boards and drawings - and did our interview. He's got some interesting ideas about music-making and circuit and product design, and has come to these ideas through hard work and a player's experience. I always appreciate people that balance the player and design aesthetic, and Ben does that to a T. I had a great visit, a good time talking - and even walked away with a score that will be the map for an upcoming album. So how about that!?! Enjoy!
Ben Hinz of Dwarfcraft joins me as we go deep into the ethos of Dwarfcraft's guitar pedals and why it's better to rule in Hell than serve in Heaven.
